In my case the controls became too small, but I think the problem is the same as yours. My sources are first developed on Windows and stored in subversion. When I retrieved them in Raspbian and opened Lazarus there to build the Linux version the user entry boxes for data were all too small. What happened was that the font of these controls had gotten a different size when the project was opened in Lazarus on Linux! In my case the control types affected were buttons, spinedits, statictexts, groupboxes, checkboxes and labels. So I had to add a procedure to set the font size of them all, which is called from the Form.OnShow event. I only had to change the size by one point to make the form look OK again. Here is my function: procedure TfrmMain.SetFontSize(S: shortint); begin // Set font size on load. btnDec60.Font.Size := S; btnDec30.Font.Size := S; btnDec10.Font.Size := S; btnDec1.Font.Size := S; btnInc1.Font.Size := S; btnInc10.Font.Size := S; btnInc30.Font.Size := S; btnInc60.Font.Size := S; btnCutStart.Font.Size := S; btnCutEnd.Font.Size := S; btnAddCut.Font.Size := S; btnJump.Font.Size := S; btnShiftAudio.Font.Size := S; speDelay.Font.Size := S; stxCutStart.Font.Size := S; stxCutEnd.Font.Size := S; stxCutTime.Font.Size := S; stxClipCnt.Font.Size := S; gbxCut.Font.Size := S; ckbLogin.Font.Size := S; lblTotal.Font.Size := S; end; And it is called from here: procedure TfrmMain.FormShow(Sender: TObject); begin SetFontSize(9); end; I do not understand why the size clearly stated in the sources as 9 are changed by Lazarus when the project loads on a different operating system, but that is in any case what happens. I am using Lazarus 2.0.4 and fpc 3.0.4 on Windows and Raspbian. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
